Sounds fun, I love experimenting

I would sculpt, place a thin layer of clear l&P then apply using tweezers, then encapsulate with the colour of your choice.

Just watch there is no residue of chocolate ect left on the wrapper as it may cause problems, have you ever tried soft foils, I love them.:hug:

I also tried it with the logo foil wrappers and I found the pink one bleeds with the acrylic. The others seemed fine.

 

[laurajl]

apply a thin layer of acrylic or gel,
cut foil to fit and apply glue to secure other wise the nail will just pop off!
apply acrylic/gel over the top!

You'll have to start swinging that tail a bit faster to burn off all the christmas chocolate you know!!

Here is my first attempt. I pressed the wrapper onto the acrylic before it completely set then capped in clear.
